As i sat on a sunny bank,
On christmas day, on christmas day
As i sat on a sunny bank,
On christmas day in the morning.
I spied three ships come sailing by,
Come sailing by, come sailing by,
I spied three ships come sailing by,
On christmas day in the morning.
And who should be with those three ships,
But joseph and his fair lady!
And who should be with those three ships,
On christmas day in the morning.
Oh, he did whistle and she did sing,
And she did sing, and she did sing,
Oh, he did whistle and she did sing,
On christmas day in the morning.
And all the bells on earth did ring,
On christmas day, on christmas day
And all the bells on earth did ring,
On christmas day in the morning.
For joy that our saviour he was born,
Oh, he was born, oh, he was born,
For joy that our saviour he was born,
On christmas day in the morning.
For joy that our saviour he was born,
On christmas day, on christmas day
For joy that our saviour he was born,
On christmas day in the morning.
